First place in the Big 12 baseball standings will be on the line when the Oklahoma Sooners travel to Austin this weekend to face the Texas Longhorns. Oklahoma is 8-4 in Big 12 play, while Texas is tied for second with Baylor with a 9-6 record.

The strength of the Longhorns is their pitching staff. The Longhorns team ERA is 2.16, which is more than a run better than everyone else in the Big 12.

It should be an exciting series in Austin. Depending on what rankings you look at Oklahoma is ranked at high as No. 9 and ranked as low as No. 10, while Texas is ranked anywhere from No. 6 to No. 11.
